If you really want the quadratic terms, you need to keep those variables as
numeric, instead of factors.  (You might also want to look into something
like the central composite designs.)

summary() and coef() on the resulting fitted object should give you want you
need.  Things like these are covered in the "An Introduction to R" manual...
